the media collective

At the first Farmers’ Market of the year, May 1st, we ran into some of the people doing surveys and interviews about starting a Lafayette Food Co-Op. We decided to do an interview ourselves. We talked to Cody, who is leading the way with this project.

It turns out there used to be one here for thirty years that finally died in the mid-90s. It’s time to bring this idea back to downtown Lafayette. If anyone has a inexpensive place that would need a little fixing up, please contact them!

The co-op is in the very early planning stages, so be on the lookout for further developments. If you want to help out with this project, please contact them at the above address. We are very excited about the possibilities with this project. Please support local food, media, and community.

Something else finally broke in the Chauncey area. This time with a political and religious bent. Luckily The Media Collective was there to cover it.

Perhaps you have seen the people standing along State Road 26 holding signs in protest of abortion. Maybe you tried to engage them in conversation. Maybe some of you yelled your own slogans from your cars. We went out and asked them Who-What-Where-When-Why-How.
